Comparison of worker and robot advantages

MANAGE

1. Using a robot to pick up the product, the injection molding machine can be operated unattended without worrying about no one or employees asking for leave.
2. Implementing a one-person-one mechanism (including gate cutting, burr shaving and packaging) and equipped with conveyor belts, one person can operate 4-5 machines, saving a lot of manpower and reducing workers' wages.
3. People will get tired, but the time for the robot to produce products is fixed and there is no need to rest, especially in hot weather or night shifts, the effect is more obvious.
4. It is difficult to recruit highly educated personnel to operate injection molding machines. Ordinary technician are not highly skilled and have a weak sense of responsibility, which makes production and management difficult.
5. When people get along with each other, conflicts will always arise, which will affect production. The use of manipulators to reduce pressure reduces manual labor, prevents internal conflicts due to excessive work pressure, and improves internal unity and company cohesion.

SAFETY

1. Using a robot to pick up the product, the injection molding machine can be operated unattended without worrying about no one or employees asking for leave.
2. As labor laws continue to improve and become stricter, there is no longer a risk of accidental injury to employees when using robots.
3. Fewer people come into contact with the product to avoid employee burns caused by overheating of the product.
4. There is no need to put your hands into the mold to take out the product, thus avoiding potential safety hazards.
5. The robot system is equipped with mold protection. If the product in the mold is not taken out, an alarm will automatically sound and the mold will not be damaged.

QUALITY  

1. If the molding machine uses automatic demoulding, the product may be scratched when it falls, and may be stained with oil, resulting in defective products.
2. If someone takes out the product, their hands may scratch the product, or their hands may not be clean and the product may be soiled.
3. By using the conveyor belt with a robot, packaging personnel can focus on strict quality control without being distracted by holding products or being too close to the injection molding machine or too hot, which affects their work.
4. The time for personnel to take out the product is not fixed, which will cause the product to shrink and deform (if the material tube is overheated, it will need to be re-injected, resulting in a waste of raw materials, and the price of raw materials will rise). The time for the robot to take out the product is fixed to ensure product quality.
5. Employees need to open the safety door first to take out products, which will extend the molding cycle and affect production efficiency. The use of robots can ensure that the injection molding cycle is shortened and production efficiency is improved.

PRODUCTIVITY

1. It can control products, ensure customer delivery, maintain good corporate reputation, and improve corporate competitiveness.
2. It is unstable for people to take products, and the slow opening and closing of the safety door has a great impact. In addition, people are lazy and emotional, prone to fatigue and lack of energy at night, plus drinking water, going to the bathroom and other matters, it is estimated that the 24-hour productivity is only 70%. The robot can operate continuously.
3. The investment cost is recovered quickly. For the products made by your company, the investment cost can be recovered in less than half a year.
4. Use robots to improve the company's image and improve the company's competitiveness.
5. For example, if the number of products taken out manually is about 1,000 molds a day, using a robot can increase the number by about 500 molds, that is, using a robot, the number of molds taken out per day is about 1,500 molds. If the molding machine in the customer's factory uses automatic demoulding, sometimes the product needs to be ejected 2-3 times. Prolonged time will affect production efficiency, and the product will fall, causing scratches, oil stains, etc., resulting in defective products.
6. If the entire molding machine uses a robot, each molding machine can save 1/3 or 1/2 labor for quality inspection and packaging.
7. Upstream manufacturers also hope to choose injection molding manufacturers with robots that can accurately calculate daily output and delivery time. The use of robots can enhance the competitiveness of enterprises and is a development trend.
